Middle School Metal Band Unlocking the Truth on Record Deal, Anime Inspirations

FUSE TV - Middle School Metal Band Unlocking the Truth on Record Deal, Anime Inspirations

Last month, eighth-grade metal trio Unlocking the Truth proved that one is never too young to rock hard after the band landed a $1.7 million recording contract with Sony. Fuse caught up with the middle schoolers to talk everything from the deal to their upcoming album and where their metal roots sprouted from.

"I realized that if we want to become big rock stars we have to get a record deal," says guitarist Malcolm Brickhouse, 13, of the group's signing. "It was a dream come true. I remember when me and [drummer] Jarad were in the basement when we were younger, we used to perform by ourselves in the mirror and act like we were actually famous. [With] the Sony contract, we feel like the dreams we had when we were younger are actually coming to life now. It's really amazing."

Those dreams include seeing their album, which the guys hope to have out by the end of the year, go gold or platinum.
